How did he get this big?!?!
Big enough to:
- pick out his own hairstyle (thats been going on since he was 2)
- start forming his own sense of style
- ask questions about God that I'll never have an anwer for
- make his own sandwiches
- start the car to let it warm up
- read books on his own
- check out and read chapter books in one day
- think he's old enough to join the adults in their discussions
- almost be a black belt in taekwondo
It goes on and on....all the things he's growing into. I really can't believe that this 8 year old that is almost as tall as me was ever small enough to be in my belly kicking and causing trouble, even then. It's amazing to see him growing, changing, and developing into his own person.
I loved when I walked into the living room and found him just hanging out and reading....such a big kid....we're very proud of him.
